Physicist Harold White gets an artist to illustrate his vision for going faster than the speed of light.

Looking like something out of Ender's Game, this illustration comes courtesy NASA physicist Harold White, who collaborated with an artist to reveal what a warp drive ship might actually look like. Back in 2012, White revealed that he and a team were designing a faster-than-light ship. This is the first hint at its appearance.

The design shows a sleek ship between two enormous rings, creating a warp bubble. If it ever worked, this design would allow a spacecraft to reach the nearest star—Proxima Centauri, at 4.24 light years away—in a matter of weeks. And all without breaking Einstein's theory of relativity.

Don't get overly excited, though. While all of this is mathematically possible, White says that it "remains to be seen if we could ever produce this to practice."
